Andrew Jackson became famous for being the first "common man" to be president. He also was famous for being a hero during the War of 1812. He was appointed leader and general of the Tennessee military. Jackson led the United States to several victories. When the British were expected to attack, Jackson took charge.
Andrew Jackson granted voting rights to all white men. This does not include Native Americans or women. Still, you did not have to be rich or own property to vote. This caused Jackson to be more liked.
Even though women weren't allowed to vote also, Native Americans had it worse during Andrew Jackson's Presidency. Jackson pursued a policy of removing Indian tribes from their ancestral lands. He did this, because it would make room for settlers and speculators who made large profits on the purchase and sale of land.
This caused Jackson little political trouble because of the primary supporters from the southern and western states. They favored plans to move Indian tribes west of the Mississippi River. Even though Jackson put a good spin on it, it was very brutal. More than 20,000 Cherokee were held at gunpoint as they marched westward. A fourth died, the rest sought survival in their new area. This has become known as "The Trail of Tears."
The Trail of Tears was the most sorrowful in the Andrew Jackson era.
